How do we know that humans are made in the image of God?

Answered in 2 sources

Humans are made in God's image as stated in Genesis 1:26-27, meaning we reflect aspects of God's character and nature.

The concept that humans are made in the image of God is foundational to understanding our value and purpose. Genesis 1:26-27 explicitly states that God created mankind in His own image, which denotes that humans possess qualities such as reason, morality, and the ability to relate to God. This distinguishes humanity from all other creation, highlighting our unique role in creation. Furthermore, this idea permeates Scripture, symbolizing innate dignity and value that every person holds. As believers, this truth calls us to live in a way that honors God, as His image bearers, reflecting His traits in our thoughts, actions, and choices.
